ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of two different urethral stent flush methods for postoperative complications of hypospadias repair in children patients. Methods A total of 182 cases of children patients who underwent urethroplasty with pedicled double skin flaps from March 2014 to March 2016 were divided into intervention group (n=89) and the control group (n=93) by using random number method. The control group was treated with gentamicin irrigation urethral stent;the intervention group was treated with gentamicin irrigation urethral stent, and the patients were trained to urinate twice with the stent from the fourth day after surgery. The incidence of urinary fistula and urethral stricture within one year after surgery, and the anxiety level of patients' caregivers were assessed. Results The incidence of urinary fistula in the intervention group and the control group were 5.7％(5/87) vs. 15.2％(14/92), and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=4.227, P<0.05). In the intervention group, the cases of non anxiety, mild anxiety, moderate anxiety and severe anxiety respectively were 33(37.9％), 42(48.3％), 8 (9.2％) and 4(4.6％). However, in the control group the cases were 21(22.8％), 46(50.0％), 12(13.0％), 13 (14.1％) respectively. The anxiety degree of patients' caregivers was significantly different between intervention group and control group (Z=2.757, P<0.01). Conclusions The training of early micturition with stent after hypospadias surgery can significantly reduce the incidence of urinary fistula and the anxiety level of caregivers.

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Mimic pulsatile flow system is the optimal device to assess the hydrodynamic performance of mechanical valvular prostheses, but few studies concern about the performance of mimic pulsatile flow system and the effect of mimic cardiac ventricle driving curve on hydrodynamic performance of mechanical valvular prostheses. OBJECTIVE: To research the effect of cardiac ventricle driving curve on the hydrodynamic performance of mechanical valvular prostheses under physiological condition DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: This study, a control observation, was carried out in the Hydrodynamics Laboratory,Biomedical Engineering Center, College of Architecture and Environment, Sichuan University (Chengdu, Sichuan, China)from April 1999 to February 2000.MATERIALS: Mimic pulsatile flow system was adopted, with the mimic cardiac output at 4 L per minute and heart rate at75 beats per minute. METHODS: The mimic puisatile flow system was implanted with 25 nun Carbo Medics bileaflet prosthesis into the aortic valve position, with 27 mm Bj(o)rk-Shiley tilting disc prosthesis into the mitral valve position. Standard cardiac ventricle driving curve was employed to test the system parameters and maintain the aortic pressure at 16.0/10.7 kPa (120/80 mm Hg).Experimental liquid was a mixtrue of saline and glycerine, at a viscosity of 3.5noa·s(3.5Cp)and a density of 1.06g/cm3.The mimic flow system kept at an unchanged level of ventricular end diastolic volume, aorta arterial compliance, peripheral resistance and peripheral compliance. The coordinate on several points of standard cardiac ventricle driving curve was modified to define 4 control curves, followed by a series of procedures, such as automatic interpolation, fitting, waveform smoothing and filtering. The hydrodynamic performance of each controlled curve was also tested. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The mean transvaivular pressure gradient, effective orifice area, closing volume and leakage volume of mechanical valvular prostheses were evaluated in five cardiac ventricle driving curves.RESULTS: The cardiac ventricle driving curves developed morphological changes within physiological conditions,subsequently induced a 2.9% variance of mean transvalvular pressure gradient, 1.5% variance of effective orifice area, 6.6%variance of closing volume and 3.6% variance of leakage volume.CONCLUSION: The cardiac ventricle driving curve has a certain effect on the hydrodynamic performance of mechanical valvular prosthesis, thereby leads to an adverse effect on the objectivity and comparability of the hydrodynamic evaluation.
